What is the Yang Blade?
The Yang Blade (羊刃) is a strong energy seen where a Yang-stem Day Master (Jia, Bing, Wu, Geng, Ren) is most flourishing, linked to boldness, competitiveness, and drive. It becomes the force that pushes through at decisive moments, but in excess tips into strain or collision, so it is a strength when used with restraint.
How to read it
The keener the blade, the more its sheath — restraint — protects its worth.
